Our dog Ollie loved Serena! She sent multiple pictures and updates everyday which we really appreciated. She was also experienced and comfortable with our dog who can sometimes have reactivity to other dogs which put our mind at ease. Will definitely book again and would recommend! Thank you Serena!❤️

Serena was incredibly sweet and spent a whole 2 weeks with our husky, Burger. She’s attentive, caring, and absolutely loves dogs. Despite Burger having a sensitive stomach, she made sure to feed him only the foods we provided and even convinced him to eat all of his meals (no small feat)! We really enjoyed working with her and would trust our pup with her anytime. She sent photos and updates daily, and our Burger really enjoyed his time. Thank you so so much!

We usually don’t trust too many people when it comes to our leash reactive dog, Honeydew but Serena was fantastic. Honey was so happy and comfortable in Serena’s space and she was treated with so much love and attention while in her care. We received lots of pictures and updates of walks, roaming the backyard and cuddling. When we arrived to pick Honey up, Serena walked her outside on leash and brought her things so we were able to leave quickly and smoothly after a long weekend trip. We will absolutely book with Serena again!

Safety and communication are my #1 priority in taking care of your animal.

I communicate often and 100% transparently so you know everything that is going on with your animal and are never left in the dark!
